Bug Description
When trying to suspend the system via pressing the power button in the system tray with ALT key pressed, it is possible to interrupt the system to enter sleep mode and fall back to screen lock. While trying to unlock the screen, the system goes to sleep immediately.
Gnome-shell is able to suspend the system by drop-down menu in the system tray. By pressing ALT key or long-press the power button until it switches to suspend icon. The system will suspend if it is by the long-press power button, while with ALT key pressed, there is a failure rate that causes the suspend process to be interrupted.
The second issue is that if the suspend process is interrupted, the locked screen is shown. While trying to unlock the screen by inputting password, the system will go sleeping after that.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
1. To suspend system via pressing the power button in the drop-down system tray with ALT key pressed.
2. During system is going to sleep, e.g., screen going dark, emulate a key bounce by pressing ALT key again.
RESULTS:
The locked screen shows up and goes to sleep after tens of seconds. While trying to unlock screen, system enter suspend after unlocking successfully.
EXPECTED RESULTS:
The system going to sleep without a problem.

I'm not familiar with the code that does suspension so suggest:
1. Verify the bug is still in Ubuntu 19.04/19.10.
2. If so then please report it to the upstream developers at:

and then tell us the new bug ID.
